Abstract

Provided are a method of forming a conductive layer on an inner portion of a through-electrode in which uniform adhesion property of plating in the inner portion of a through-hole is enhanced and a tact time is short, and a semiconductor device. The method of forming a conductive layer includes: a first plating step of forming a first plating layer on the inner portion of the through-hole; a plating suppression layer forming step of forming a plating suppression layer including a material different from a material of the first plating layer in an opening portion of the through-hole after the first plating step; and a second plating step of forming a second plating layer by plating on the inner portion of the through-hole after the plating suppression layer forming step.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1. A method of forming a conductive layer on an inner portion of a through-hole which penetrates a substrate, comprising:
 a step of forming a through-hole which penetrates a substrate; 
 a first plating step of forming a first plating layer on an inner portion of the through-hole; 
 a plating suppression layer forming step of forming a plating suppression layer having an electric conductivity lower than an electric conductivity of the first plating layer in an opening portion of the through-hole on the first plating layer after the first plating step; and 
 a second plating step of forming a second plating layer by plating on the inner portion of the through-hole on the first plating layer and the plating suppression layer after the plating suppression layer forming step. 
 
     
     
       2. The method of forming a conductive layer according to  claim 1 , wherein the first plating layer and the second plating layer comprise the same material. 
     
     
       3. A semiconductor device having a conductive layer formed on an inner portion of a through-hole which penetrates a substrate, comprising:
 a first plating layer formed in an opening of the through-hole; 
 a plating suppression layer formed on the first plating layer; and 
 a second plating layer formed on the first plating layer and the plating suppression layer. 
 
     
     
       4. The semiconductor device according to  claim 3 , wherein the first plating layer and the second plating layer comprise the same material. 
     
     
       5. The semiconductor device according to  claim 3 , wherein the plating suppression layer has an electric conductivity lower than an electric conductivity of the first plating layer.
